But that beautiful bugatti, full of oil and with a sharp exhaust, is a novelty. On the circuit laid out at the Brno exhibition grounds, he races with great courage, to the point of tearing cobblestones from the track. The crew is enjoying every meter.<\/strong><\/div>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/video.idnes.cz\/embed.aspx?idvideo=V170719_134926_autokat_krr\" width=\"630\" height=\"403\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The car should be running. Being idle doesn&#039;t do him any good. And this red knight has been through a lot. When you see its owner ride it, you&#039;ll understand.<\/p>\n<p>Helge Haug is well-known in the Czech Republic, he often appears at veteran events. His red Bugatti T40 has an amazing patina. And Helge rides with him for dear life. With his white hair, beard and careless elegance, he is reminiscent of the driving masters of the past. But when he gets behind the wheel, he is a mercurial young man.<\/p>\n<div class=\"imagelist imagelist-cl5 not4bbtext\">\n<div class=\"cell cell-first\"><a href=\"https:\/\/auto.idnes.cz\/brno-revival-vystaviste-mezi-pavilony-bugatti-frm-\/foto.aspx?r=auto_ojetiny&amp;c=A170718_225748_auto_ojetiny_fdv&amp;foto=FDV6cbb39_mpb92.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/1gr.cz\/fotky\/idnes\/17\/072\/cl5\/FDV6cbb39_mpb92.jpg\" alt=\"Brno Revival Between pavilions\" width=\"560\" height=\"373\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"fc0\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&quot;Wind shield?

He drives his 1926 Bugatti T40 (first year of production, the last of approximately 800 units built in 1930) in hill climbs and vintage circuit races. That is, the ones that drive really fast.<\/p>\n<p>His car, which was one of the stars <a href=\"https:\/\/auto.idnes.cz\/brno-revival-zavod-formule-ddl-\/auto_ojetiny.aspx?c=A170714_131553_auto_ojetiny_fdv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">of the race weekend at the Brno exhibition grounds<\/a>, has a wonderful patina. Everything is original and functional. That is, except for the clock on the instrument panel, which measures time rather randomly. However, the paintwork is not original, the original blue color, typical for Bugattis, peeks out on the side due to two scratches. \u201cI bought it many years ago from the original owner in Australia who had a collection of cars and all of them were red, so he had this bugatti painted red as well. So I left him like that,&quot; explains Helge. By the way, he&#039;s a dentist.<\/p>\n<div class=\"imagelist imagelist-sph not4bbtext\">\n<div class=\"cell cell-first\"><a href=\"https:\/\/auto.idnes.cz\/brno-revival-vystaviste-mezi-pavilony-bugatti-frm-\/foto.aspx?r=auto_ojetiny&amp;c=A170718_225748_auto_ojetiny_fdv&amp;foto=FDV6cbb33_mpb28.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/1gr.cz\/fotky\/idnes\/17\/072\/sph\/FDV6cbb33_mpb28.jpg\" alt=\"Brno Revival Between pavilions\" width=\"264\" height=\"198\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"cell\"><a href=\"https:\/\/auto.idnes.cz\/brno-revival-vystaviste-mezi-pavilony-bugatti-frm-\/foto.aspx?r=auto_ojetiny&amp;c=A170718_225748_auto_ojetiny_fdv&amp;foto=FDV6cbb33_mpb27.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/1gr.cz\/fotky\/idnes\/17\/072\/sph\/FDV6cbb33_mpb27.jpg\" alt=\"Brno Revival Between pavilions\" width=\"264\" height=\"198\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"fc0\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>He skids through every, really every corner and fights with the big steering wheel with enthusiasm and bravado.
